Lightwave Logic, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: LWLG) a technology company focused on the development of the 'Next Generation Electro-Optic Polymer Material Platform' for applications in high speed fiber-optic telecommunications and optical computing, today announced the filing of its sixth patent application directed to its 'Next Generation Electro-Optic Material Platform.'
Lightwave Logic, Inc. filed a provisional U.S. patent application directed to stable free radical Chromophores for use in non-linear optical applications. These new polymeric electro-optic materials have enormous potential in spatial light modulation and all-optical-signal processing (light switching light).
The improved Chromophore architectures should exhibit long-term thermal, chemical and photochemical stability as exhibited by the Company's other electro-optic materials.
"This new application extends the range of our materials base and incorporates new analytical information learned in collaboration with several university groups. It provides us with a greater understanding of the base technology supporting our proprietary materials," said David Eaton, CTO of Lightwave Logic. "We believe this new application can lead to a new class of materials for optical applications."
